Jolly Roger
Captain Hook sails aboard the Jolly Roger in this years best
fantasy adventure movie, Peter Pan.
The Jolly Roger is evil and foul to the hull, it is home to the
villainous Captain Hook and his band of cutthroat pirates. Every
timber in her is detestable and any soul foolish enough to step
foot on her vile deck is surely damned.
The story begins on
a chilly night in buttoned-up Edwardian London as Wendy Darling
mesmerizes her younger brothers with tales of
swordplay, swashbuckling and Captain
Hook, the legendary pirate who
fears nothing but a ticking clock. But a clock is ticking for Wendy,
too. Her father has decreed that it's time for her to grow up. After
tonight, no more stories. She's to be groomed for womanhood and marriage
by strict Aunt Millicent . Unknown to the Darlings,
Peter Pan loves Wendy's stories, too, and travels a great distance
to hear them. His appearance in their nursery that night, along with
a jealous little fairy called Tinker
Bell, triggers an awfully big adventure for Wendy and her brothers. Following him
out the window like a small flock of birds, the children swoop over
London 's moonlit rooftops, through a galaxy of radiant planets and
stars, to the magical Neverland, where they begin an exhilarating
new life free of grown-up rules with Peter and the Lost Boys in their
secret underground home. Confronting depraved pirates,
malicious mermaids, a monstrous crocodile and, worst of all, the
vicious steel claw dangling from Captain Hook's right arm, Wendy
and her brothers find out what they're made of.
